can you turn the engine over by hand? if not then there is somthing wrong? when you put it in neutral and let it roll then pop the clutch what happens? do the tires skid or do they roll?

Probably the starter "gear" bound up the flywheel, take the starter loose from the motor, then try to turn it over by hand.
